WHEN," Lincoln asked, "shall
" I start, and where am I sup
posed t go'"
. "Tonight," tald the other.
"There's no time to be lost." And
lie proceeded to give Lincoln the
directions: "Three days' journey
south of Lake Tchad, in the Jun
gle clearing which is called by
the Negroes the Meeting of the
Elephants, not far from a moun
tain known as the Hill of Seven
Spears."
He rose.
,. "Again," he added, "the Lodge
of the Bi-Hassanyieh is dispersed.
But this time of our own free
will. None, after tonight, will en
ter this building. For, in the fu
ture, it will be too risky to meet
here. So, when you return with
word from the master, bring it to
me where I live."
"The same old place?"
"Yes. The other side of the
camel-market"
Once more he embraced the
American.
"May Allah guard the stepping
of your feet!" he said.
They left the halL In the outer
room, Fosiha was talking to a
middle-aged Riffian. Lincoln rec
ognized him as a former acquaint
ance, one of the dervishes, Mah
monri Kassem by name.
He turned to go, leaning or.
Mahmoud's arm, when Lincoln
stopped him with a question that
had been bothering him an in
tensely personal question, though
he tried to make it sound casual:
"What about our new military
governor here? They say he is
friendly to the natives." .
"He is. Yet he dies tonight"
"Oh,- does he?" the American
(echoed in his thoughts. Aloud he
tsaid, "I thought all the great
; Christian dignitaries were to be
murdered on the same day?"
' "Not he. Sidi EUlot I have been
told, is a very shrewd man, thus
a very dangerous man, who knows
much and may find out more."
"Still, if he dies tonight,
wouldn't that be giving the plot
' away?" -."
"No. For he will be killed by a
woman who will swear that she
did it for the sake of revenge, be
. cause once he loved her, deserted
her. It was Fosiha who had the
wise notion ..."
"And who," Fosiha exclaimed,
"shall wield the dagger?"
"May the Lord Allah," said el-
Andalosi, "give strength to your
blade and true aim!"
TTE left with Mahmoud; and Fo-'
siha and Lincoln were alone.
Her head was bowed. He stared
at her. Again he wondered if she
knew who he was; felt almost
certain that she did.
He kept on staring at her, cen
tering all his will on her in an
effort to force her to look up, to
return his gaze, to answer his un
spoken question.
All at once, she did. Her eyes
'met his and he heard her whis
per: "How can I kill you YOU?"
I "Then you know who I . . .?"
I "A woman in love how can she
ftelp knowing?" Hard sobs choked
'her. "You see once I loved you
10, with an of me, all my passion,
11 my tenderness. And now I
bate you!" .
"And yet you warned me . . ."
"You cannot read the riddle of
Fosiha, the woman's riddle eh?"
the demanded. "You cannot un
derstand how, hating you, I want
you dead, and how, loving
you ..."
She interrupted herself.
"I was untrue to our Lodge. X
let our secret be given away to
you, the foreigner, the Christian."
She stepped up close to him. A
deep, driving appeal was in her
voice. "Swear to me that you
will not use this secret"
"I am the governor. I can give
no such oath. And you know it"
SILENCE tell between them.
D "What "she mumbled "what
can I do? Dear Allah what can
I do . . .? t
"Yes," he echoed dully, sadly,
"what can you do?"
"Only one thing!" she exclaimed
suddenly.
"What?"
"I shall wait for you, for the
lover of my youth, in the inner
sail of Paradise!"
And, before the American knew
what was happening and how, her
right hand reached into her robe
and came out with a nicker and
rush of steel.
He saw her hand lift He saw

He saw it descend even as his
angers tried to grasp her wrist.
He saw yes! saw more than
heard the sickening thud as she
buried the weapon in her heart
Then something blurred his
vision for the fraction of a second.
"Perhaps," he said later on,
when he spoke of it "it was the
dead woman's soul which passed
through the room, through the
door, into the open and flew up,
up, toward her God . . ."

soft, gurgling cry not a cry of
pain, but tho cry of a tired child

A delicate balance of power
may have discouraged some wars
in the past, but it has always
broken down in the end. Today
the developments of science and
technology arc such that any bal
ance that might be achieved af
ter this war would be too un
stable to deserve the name.
President Harold W, Dodds of

that the sacrifices will be per
formed by someone else . . . the
